Dubbed a "riotous, lovable memoir packed with outrageous stories," the book details the ups and downs of the rockers life and career. He faced lots of setbacks before managing to get an audition for AC/DC after the death of their lead singer, Bon Scott. With Johnson, the band recorded the biggest-selling rock album of all time: Back in Black.

But this wasn't the end of his story. Due to a hearing loss diagnosis in 2016, Johnson had to quit the band, only to return in 2020 to release yet another hit album Power Up.

“It’s been a rollercoaster of a life, throughout which Brian’s kept his feet firmly on the ground, never losing touch with his roots," reads the book's synopsis.

The Lives of Brian can be pre-ordered here. Its UK and Irish release will be on October 13th, with a US release on October 25th.
